[opensuse] memtest86 skipping 3/4 of a pass ?

I've got a new workstation with 4Gb RAM - it's been showing signs of
instability, so I ran memtest86+ v1.70 for about 13 hours last night.

I had a sneaking suspicion that memtest was cutting things short - I had
seen the pass completion bar at 23-24%, only to see it having started
on the next pass only 5 minutes later. So I videotaped a couple of
ours worth, and sure enough - memtest completes 25% of a pass after
which it starts the next pass.

Any ideas, suggestions?
